RIP, Andy Griffith

[tinydancer]

This really saddens me. I always stop down and watch Andy when I come across him on tv. I always wanted to live in Mayberry.

I saw this and got really sad. Then I started to whistle the theme song.

Something that just seems so very odd to me about his death today.... apparently he passed away this morning, but was already buried as of early this afternoon. Does anyone know why the rush?

That is how his family had planned it.

That is also how my family members and I wish to be laid to rest. Quickly (with the hope that our passings are not untimely and filled with drama). Some of us wish to quickly be buried and the others wish to be quickly cremated and sprinkled where their wills indicate.
